I just dropped a small screwdriver in my keggle while chilling!

[Pickngrin]

Using my new keggle for the first time... tightening a hose clamp on my immersion chiller... into the wort the screwdriver went... I was already down to 90ish degrees.

I've dropped worse than that without any problems. My dog dropped his bone in my fermentor while I wasn't looking.

screwdriver= vodka and orange juice.. Sounds like a little kick in alcohol with orange twist. don't worry be happy.. all will taste fine.

call it screw drivers ale

 

[wilserbrewer]

Just get the yeast in there and working asap...pitch heavy if ya can. No worries.

 

[Special Hops]

probably will be fine. I have done similar and has turned out fine.

 

[Revvy]

Well that's a first for me. But like others have said, it should be fine...People including me have done worse. When it turns out fine, add the story to this thread.

But in the interim, read them and relax.

Ah haha. That's funny. Oop's where did my pipette go? Oh no, it's in my fermenter. Oh well. RDWHAHB.

Cheers!

you'll be fine i dropped whole strainer into fermenter and it turned out fine

 

[Scooby_Brew]

That's awsome!!! Now you have to rename this beer "The Screwdriver Ale"!!! What a great name for a beer, and now you have a story to go with the name! Lucky you

 

[Pickngrin]

The problem wasn't that I dropped it in... the problem was that it was a Phillips head, and I needed a flat head.... <rimshot>
Thanks for the feedback... I am thinking it will turn out fine.

At least it wasn't one of those star headed thingys.

You're screwed! ba dumb bump. I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself.

I dropped my thermometer into the fermenter after cooling. That was some funny stuff. "Whoops....where's my yeast? Drink up buddy!"

 

[petep1980]

I've dropped....and dripped...much worse.

The biggest concern you have now is coming up with a killer name.

I would find out the material spec of the screw driver. It'd be sweet to have like 314 Ale, and people would be mystified where the name came from.

 

[Pickngrin]

Ah, good idea about the material spec. It was my first attempt at a Scottish ale and my planned name was Highlander, but...
